New Rack

Part of my Tax Refund went into building a new melamine rack. I ordered some of the parts from Reptile Basics today (Thermostat and Heat Tape) and I finished constructing the structure:

Now all I gotta do is put on the trim and setup the heat tape once I got it and we'll be rocking!

Great looking rack. I think the next rack I build I am going to try melamine. :gj:

Very cool, are you going to tape down the heat tape. or router out part of the wood for the heat tape?? :salute:

Nice job:gj:

Is that 3/4'' ?

Going to Tape it down, you'll notice that the tubs have lids on them, I did this because the lids are perfect spacers.

Yes. :)

Each shelf is held in by 8 2" Screws on both sides. Props goes to Freakie_Frog and mxrider42 for asissting me with the exact screws and for proof reading my design. Once I'm done I'm going to give a full list of all that I used.
